Presentation Transcript

  1. Classification, nomenclature, taxonomy,identification • Classification is arrangement of bacteria into groups ( the same organisms can be classified differently according to the view: serotype classification, antimicrobial resistance classification…) • Nomenclature is naming, the mean of communicating - it is binominal • Taxonomy - science of classification, identification, nomenclature and making a system • Identification is practical use of classification criteria to distinguish certain organism from others

  2. Graduating • subspecies: serotyping Haemophilus influenzae type b • species - distinct organism with certain characteristic features, similar organism within genus Salmonella typhi • genera:Streptococcus, Salmonella, • families: Micrococaceae, Enterobacteriacae • orders

  3. Approaches to taxonomy • Numerical, phylogenetic, genome size, Guanin+cytosine content, DNA relatedness,thermal stavility of DNA sequences, DNA relatedness under supraoptimal conditions……. • In practice - polyphasic approch - depending on importnace and purpose of nomenclature

  4. Bacterial identification in practice • Pure culture • Colony morphology and gram staining - preliminary identification • Biochemical properties, antigenic properties, growth characteristics - binominal nomenclature - clinical purposes • Molecular and genetic characteristic • G+C, DNA homology, thermal stability -epidemiological and forensic puroses

  5. Principles of diagnosis • Symptomatic patient - manifestation of infecton • Suspection of microbial ethiology - exogenous or endogenous • Specimen selection, collection - • Specimen processing and microbiological examination - specific techniques • Result communication and consultation • Asymptomatic patient

  6. Practical taxonomy Miscellanous bacteria Mycoplasma, Ureaplasma, Chlamydia Ricketsiaceae Spirochetales - Spirochetes, Leptospira, Borrelia Mycobacterium Nocardia , Actinomycetes,

  8. Staphylococcus • Pathogens of man • Divided in 2 groups on plasmacoagulase production - artificial PC negative - common comensales of human skin and animals, some cause infections in some circumstances (Staphyoloc. epidermidis, warneri, haemolyticus, saprophyticus, hyicus) PC positive - Staphylococcus aureus, St. intermedius

  9. Staphylococcus aureus G+coccus • colonizes nasal passage and axillae • able to grow on salt medium (10%), catalase +, grows in clusters, PC positive - distinguishing factor • Structure: capsule, peptidoglycan,protein A, teichooic acid, clumping factor, cytoplasmic membrane • Toxins: alfa, beta, delta, gama, leukocidin, exfoliating,toxic shock syndrome TSST,enterotoxin • Enzymes: coagulase, catalase, hyaluronidase, staphylokinase, lipases, fibrinolysin, nuclease, penicilinase

  10. Virulence factor and patogenesis • Multifactorial • adherence - surface proteins (att.to fibronectin), fibrinogen/fibrin binding protein (att. to clots and traumatised cell, the most important part of slime on biomaterial of indwelling devices), fibronectin • avoidance of host defence - capsule polysaccharide, protein A - bind IgG - disruption of opsonisation, leukocidin - toxic for PMNL • damage of host tissue - toxins - alfa - membrane damaging, necrosis, beta - sfingomyelinase, delta - detergen like action, leucocidin - dermonecrosis, exfoliatin - epidermolytic toxin
